CIGARETTE SMOKING is doing more injury to the

same journal somebody gives this advice about
caring for the eyes: Keep shade on your lamp or
gas burner. Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness. Never begin to read, write or
sew for several minutes after coming from dark
ness to light. Never read by twilight, moonlight
or on cloudy days. Never read or sew directly in
front OF the light, window or door. 1t is best 10
let the light fall from above. obiiQuely over the
ing the eyes shall open on the light OF q window.
Do not use the eyesight by light so scant that it
requires an effort to discriminate. The moment
you are tnsttnctively prompted to rub your eyes
that moment stop using them. II the eyeltds are
glued together on waking up do not f0rcibly open
them. but apply saliva with the finger: It Is the
speediess dilutant in the world; then wash your
eyes and face IN warm water.
